    Trimming Rudder in Slip for x-wind land?

    I've always believed you should learn something new on every flight, but this one really surprised me - never seen this in 27 years of flying.

    SWA Reports Mar Traffic

    Well, here's the latest from SWA. Note below that for FY 2002 load factor is 62.9% (70.2% for Mar) so far. Will that be enough for SWA to post a profit in 2nd QTR FY '02? My fingers are crossed!

    Connectivity?

    Anyone in training at SWA: Does the hotel used for new hires in training have an ethernet connection or do you use a dial up? I'm spoiled here at home with a cable modem. I was wondering if I'll need to sign up for a dial up modem connection while at the hotel. And, if that is the case...

    SWA Interview Prep

    SWA interview in January. Thought I'd shoot the load and give it my best shot. I've heard there's a former SWA interviewer who provides a prep session for the interview. Does anybody know who this is and how to get in touch with him/her?
